Some trees are valuable, not only
for their timber, but will yield an in
come while growing. The sugar maple
is one of these. Its timber ranks very
high for both fuel and lumber. The sap
taken from it during the brief season OF
sugar making makes no perceptible re-
duction in its vitality, or check in its
growth, and the cost of the syrup or
sugar, made from it is small. The nec-
essary fuel is supplied by fallen
branches, or branches which should be
cut out, and the work comes at a sea-
son when very little else can be done
on the farm. There is no expense for
planting Or cultivation. Expensive APP
pliances are not required, and the work
can all be done at home, Maple syrup
orsugar known to be pure always finds

EARLY MATURITY.
Two Safe and Common-Sense Methods by
Which 1t Can Be Accumulated.

| Two Safe and Common-Sense Methods by
Which 1t Can BE Accomplished.
The question of early maturity in the
breeding of farm animals is one of spe-
cial Importance, but early maturity
should not mean a young animal loaded
with fat. The butcher will decide
against such an animal every time, if
| he has chance The butcher looks to
the lean meat of carcass for profit,
| for this lean meat is what the buyer
pays for. If the muscle is filed with
sufficient fat to render the whole succu-
lent, the true aim has been reached in
the production of superior beef and
mutton. If it be hog, a large amount
Of fat is admissible, since the lard is
nearly as valuable as the lean meat.
This early maturity, with due pro-
portion of muscle, is accomplished,
first, by selecting animals of early ma
turing breeds, and second, feeding for
the purpose in view. In summer flush
pasture, grass and clover, contain this
nutumentin the proper degree. That
is to say, the mixed grasses form a
perfect food, nourishing all parts
alike, of the animal economy. When
special foods are given they must also
contain the elements of bone, muscle
and fat in proper proportion, and if
the young steer or lamb have had these
the first full year of life as a steer, or
for seven months as a lamb, the animal
may thereafter be safely given a
larger proportion of Indian corn--our
cheapest single food for finishing of.
Mill stuffs, bran, light barley and oil
cakes are generally cheap enough so
they may be economically used in feed
ing young animals.
Without going into discussion on
perfect foods, many of which are mys-
tifying to many practical feeders, it is
safe to say that corn meal and bran, OF
equal weight, in connection with grass
or good, sweet hay, comes pretty near
to being food that will nourish all
parts fully. If oats and light barley
are cheap, these may be given with
corn SO each will constitute one-third
of the whole by weight. If Oil cake
can be had, two pounds or more per
day for each young steer may be added
with profit.
What the feeder is constantly to keep
In mind, however, is the cost of the
feeding material. If one kind is scarce
and consequently dear, use something
containing the component parts as
near as may be. Then the nearer an
animal is kept up to full feed, without
cloying, from birth to the butchers
block, the greater the profit; for tho
assimilation of food has been definitely
shown, as previously stated in this
journal, to be decreasing ratio for the
amount fed, the older the animal is.
Besides this, if it takes half the food
eaten to supply the average waste from
birth to the age of four years, this alone
becomes heavy charge against the
current value of the animal at that age,
and therefore an increasing charge u,.-
til it is butehered. Farm Field a,,d
